This September, Khivi Care welcomed a group of very special guests. Hope Hospice selected our home for a visit by its executive leadership and Board members, an acknowledgment of the compassionate care, welcoming environment, and high standards our team works to uphold every day.

This recognition belongs to our caregivers

At Khivi Care, we are fierce advocates for our residents. We notice the little things, ask questions, speak up, and work closely with families, physicians, and hospice partners to ensure every resident receives the thoughtful, individualized care they deserve. Being chosen by a hospice organization that sees many care homes across the East Bay is a reflection of that daily work, and it belongs to every member of our team.

In their words

"My background is in social work, and I began my career in hospice carrying a caseload and working directly with patients and families in the field. Through that experience, I visited many care facilities and came to recognize the qualities that distinguish those truly committed to excellent care. From the moment I walked into Khivi Care Home, it was clear that providing compassionate, high-quality care to the people who call it home is a genuine priority. The home was well organized, welcoming, and exceptionally clean, with thoughtful attention to the décor and furnishings that create a warm, comfortable environment. That commitment to quality, along with the positive experiences our team has had working with Khivi, made a strong impression on me." (Anthony Lupian, Sr. Vice President, Hope Hospice)

Working together for our residents

Hospice care is part of what we offer at Khivi Care, alongside dementia care, respite stays, and around-the-clock non-medical assistance with daily living. Partnerships with organizations like Hope Hospice mean our residents and their families are supported by a full circle of care, in a place that feels like home.
